Vision unveiled for £14m Burnley hospital scheme  

MCI Developments, part of housebuilder Keepmoat Homes, has submitted an application to Wyre Council for 39 affordable homes on land west of Garstang Road in Barton.  

The council voted to uphold an earlier decision to sell 39 acres at Stanley Park Golf Club to bring forward a $45m leisure development, despite strong opposition from residents. 

A working group led by local MP Simon Fell is looking for a consultant to develop a vision for the coastal site in Ulverston offered for development by the pharma giant.

The council plans to exercise compulsory purchase powers to acquire land around King Street, close to Blackpool North train station, to pave the way for a 215,000 sq ft office scheme for an unnamed potential occupier.

The council is to determine on Wednesday whether or not to sell part of Stanley Park Golf Club to leisure operator United Kingdom Adventure Parks, after an earlier decision to approve the disposal was overruled. 

Proposals for a 35-acre sports village on Common Edge Road, part of the £28.8m first phase of development at Blackpool Airport Enterprise Zone, have been lodged with the council. 

The developer is moving forward with proposals for a 600,000 sq ft industrial scheme in central Lancashire, after concluding a consultation last month.

The cinema operator, which now hopes to open in the town this December, is seeking to extend its lease from 20 years to 25.

The housebuilder has acquired a 14-acre plot off Royton Drive in Whittle-le-Woods near Chorley for an undisclosed sum and aims to start work on a 34-home project later this year.
